THE LEGISLATURE.
The First Days Work Devoted to Organ
ization.
fARsoN rHE sENArE PREsIDEyr.
Proecedinos in Both Houses.


SALEM, Jan TO- The day has been
devoted TO the work of organization,
which was not completed till nearly 6 |
o'clock this evening. On the part of
many members there was indisposition
to go into caucus OF into any conference
which looked like Caucus. After
much talk, however, their scTuples were
overcome with an understanding that
the meetings should be considered and
called merely consultations, and to have
no binding effect on those participating.
Even this was more than one senator
Dawson, of Linn) felt was consistent
with his promises i'll the canvass pre-
cceding his election, and after entering
the consultation room he explained his
position and asked permission to retire,
which was granted. To this action is
due the election of Carson to the presi-
dency, since Dawson's vote would have
elected Lee.
In the senate consultation, the first
proceeding was to declare that the
meeting was not CAUCUS and the next
was to vote on president, the result
! being a tie1 between Carson and Lee,
with ole blank VOTE On The next bal
lot Carson had one majority
CARSON PRESIDENT OF THE SENATE.
No further ballots were taken. but
IN the open session later all the repnb.
licans, excepting Dawson, who voted
blank, voted for Carson, the democrats
vote.i for j. K. Wcatherford of Linn.
The candidates for the chief cierkshir
of the senate before the republican con
sultation were E G. Hursh of Rose
burg and Charles B. Moores of Salem
Hursh received one majority. Later
In the open session, all the republicans
voted for Hursll. The democrats voted
for L. G.. Williams.
ORGANIZATION OF THE HOUSE.
The republicans of tho house held 4
conference at o'clock. under simi
lar understanding to that among tn,
senator's. A formal resolution wa.
adopted, declaring that the meeting wal
not a caucus, and that its conclusion.
Were not binding. On the first baIlo
Gregg had IA woes and Loughlin O
Yanmhill Z, with the others scatteiin.
among half dozen candidates. Greg.
&was then called on to state his position
and he made IA speech promising abso
lutte impartiality to all in making NJ
; committees He then got 81 votes t,
l 10 scattering Subsequently all tn
!. republicans voted for him in open scs
sion.
1t was decided III the consultation
c room to compromise the c1erkship dis
pute by giving the places to both car
, didates, the chief clerkship to Jennins
, and the second place to Cole.

Now the train starts. The postal clerk
has been pulling heavy pouches around
or throwing letters into the boxes for
half an hour, and if he is unused to the
work his muscles begin to feel tired.
But he must not quit or take rest, even
for moment because his labor has just
begun. He must brace himself up and
enter upon a desperate game of follow
my leader-the leader being man who
has been in the service for years and has
worked himself up from an apprentice to
the high and mighty Office of chief clerk
in charge of the car, whose power is for
the time as absolute as that of the car of
all the Russias. As the train dashes
along all these clerks must continue their
work, now made 100 per cent. harder by
the swaying of the car. They must brace
themselves first one way and then
another always keeping up that cease
less throw, throw, throw, not for one
hour or two, but for eight or ten hours,
taking on additional pouches as the train
flies through the country at breakneck
speed, and throwing off other pouches as
the stations are passed, all the while IN a
state of uncertainty as to whether the
pouch knocked out the small boy stand
ing on the station platform, or landed in
the middle of the cornfield neal by.
The train does not stop at airy but inn
portant towns, and the postal Clerks must
take chances on the pouch they throw off
to the rural postmaster striking the
ground anywhere within a quarter of a
mile of him. By the time the clerk has
got to the end of his run, the Place being
Chicago, st. Louis, Pittsbure, Grafton,
Cleveland, as the case may be and hav-
ing been kept in a violent motion, legs,
arms and mind, all the time, it is only
reasonable to suppose that he feels tired,
and he does. Cincinnati Time,-Star.

Wrinkles in the Face.

While wrinkles result from the natural
working of the system, they may also
be caused by perverted condition Of the
system, as are pimples, blotches and boils.
Now the human face-unlike that of
brutes-was meant to be the "mirror of
the mind, the visible expression of every
passion. emotion and inmost feeling.
Herein is its chief beauty. Hence its nu
merous muscles and nerves, whereby il is
so wonderfully adjusted to this end But
muscles in constant or frequent exercise
increase in volume, strength and readi-
ness of action.
Hence habits of thought and feeling
become stamped on the face, and we read
50 easily the character of the proud, the
vain, the deceitful and the sensual man,
or of the kind, the calm, the energetic,
the frank, the candid and the honest
man.
But there is nothing like care and
worriment to pillow burrows in the fore
head, and these are badly marring the
faces of our American women. We pass
in the streets women of 80 whose fore
heads are more wrinkled than the brow
should be at 70. Some of these may
not have more cares than others, but
they unnecessarily yield to the tendency
to express them in the face.-Youth' s
Companion.

WHO FIRST DISCOVERED GOLD?
A California Woman Gives the Credit to
John Denton.

A California Woman Gives the Credit to
John Denton.
The closing days of 1916 presented
far different scene to the eyes of Mrs.
John NJ Murphy, of San Jose, and sister
of Mrs. Lewis than the closing days of
1886. Then she was at Bonner lake with
a party hemmed in by snow and
anxiously waiting for the relief which
did not come for weeks afterward.
ut is a curious fact, )" she began, "that
the credit of the gold discovery was never
given to the man tc whom it rightfully
belongs. 1t was discovered in the winter
of '46 and Al in a cabin in which we
were at Bonner lake, seated by fire,
each busy with his or her own thoughts.
That awful time at Bonner lake is as
firmly imbedded in my memory as if ham
mered there by hammers of iron. AS
said, we were seated around the fire
when John Denton, a gunsmith by trade,
while knocking off chips of the rocks on
which the wood was placed, saw some
thing shining. He examined it and pro-
nounced it gold. He then knocked off
more chips from the rocks, and hunted in
the ashes for more of the shining parti-
cles, until he had gathered tablespoon
full He wrapped the gold in a piece of
buckskin and put it in his pocket. When
the first relief party came he went out
with it, but died on the way and the gold
was buried with him. When l saw my
father Mr. Reed, told him of the cir
cumstance, and, says he, If John Den
ton says that that is gold, it is gold, for
he knows. My father intended to go
back to Bonner lake to search for the
precious metal, but before he started
gold was discovered at Suffers fort,
hence he did not return to the lake. l
think that if a thorough search is made
gold can be found at the present day at
the lake or near it. Not much gold has
since been found there, because no regu-
lar prospect has been made for it.
Il have been told that the rocks which
we used in the fireplace were washed
down to the lake from a mountain, in
which gold was, but this mountain was
probably many miles away from the
lake.
"When any one asks me about the dis
covery of gold, l say that John Denton
was the first discoverer of gold in Cali

There is one subject for the considera-
ton of the many young men who wish
to embark in the cattle business that is
but too seldom presented to them, and
which they never seem to think of them
selves, and that is the value of their in
dividual time. If a man is the possessor
Of small capital-say $1,000, he will
figure on realizing a certain per cent,
which in most cases, by the way, will
prove fictitious. But he doesn't stop to
reflect that, since all Of his time must he
given to make a success of the project, it
is only right that he should take into ac-
count the actual value of his services at
home. For example, $4,000 at 20 per
cent is $1,000. Now, it is an open ques-
ton if salary just as large as this
amount cannot be earned by the average
man who gives the same devotion to his
work as that necessitated by successful
stock raising If so, the $4,000 still re-
mains to him to place in some perfectly
safe investment at per cent. yielding
$500 annually. Of course the ranch fever
has somewhat abated, but l think the
suggestion still holds good as one of vital
importance to all who would go West. "

The effect of heredity and environment
on character and conduct should be care
fully studied by those who aspire to the
work of philanthropists. 1t will be de-
pressing at first; it will make humanity
seem like clay in the hands of memorable
and remorseless forces; but it will save
an immense waste of time and effort and
means, and, by and by, the depression
will change to hope, as it is seen that the
same law that necessitates degenerations
under certain conditions, under others
works regenerations.-Amo II. Brad

No large city, remarks tue Inter-
ocean, has given high license a more
thorough test than Chicago. Under
tue operation Of the high license law
the revenue derived from saloon Ii
censes has increased from 100000
per aunum to nearly 50 100000
The former rate was S2j per annum
1t ia now $500. Under the old rate
there were in leo2 rearly 1000 sa-
looms in the city. There are now
$500, not a very signal dimipuisn
in number apparently, bat it is to be
remarked in explanation that the
city has grown enormously in popu.
lation and in business since 1882,
and, moreover, o considerable area
OF territory has since been added.
Had the former low license prevailed
up to the present there would have
been fully G,O00 saloons in Chicago.
An additional significant fact is that
the brewers, who largely control and
influence the saloon traffic, actually
pay the licenses for, We should say,
one-half the ealoUns. This il done
